Day 9. Rainbow nails

This is the most complex mani I've done in a while...
I used 13 polishes!
In the order of usage:
Sally Hansen Nailgrowth miracle base coat
OPI No Room For The Blues (blue base)
Yolizul 321 (dark red)
Deborah 7 day long 161 (red)
Astor Mikado 30 (orange)
New Age no name Yellow
Look by Bipa no.17 Frog (green)
Essence Chacalaca (dark blue)
Smart girl get more Glitter/shimmer top coat
Catrice Up to 10 days Top coat

Phew! I had a hard time just typing it all down :)
First I did two coats of OPI and then with liner brush from Essence's tip painter polish I drew thin lines of each color. The result seemed a little uneven to me so I added a shimmering top coat to cover it up a bit.

I really enjoyed doing this mani and wearing it!
I got all sorts of comments, let me mention a few of them:
"Oh, are you planning on going to Love parade?" :)
"What's that supposed to be? Rainbow? I don't think so. Which rainbow has brown in it?"
"Is this like a symbol for resistors? " - friend engineer
" Oh, look at you serious girl with cheerful nails! " - a man on the street

This is also a mani I've been wearing for the longest time: for five whole days, and going towards sixth!

What does this remind you of? I hope rainbow, since that was the idea. But I'd like to hear if there's something else you see in this pattern...
